WWZ Series 1 Race 5 at Imola

By Chip Witt, Redwood Region PCA

On Friday, December 11th, the fifth and final race of the Wild West Zones Series 1 was held at Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari (a.k.a. Imola).

All driver classes joined on-track together in a single 23-car grid comprised of Pro and Club drivers in the 911 RSR and Sport and Challenge drivers in the Ruf 12RT Track, creating some incredible multi-class action.

After the dust settled following the 40 minute, 24 lap slug-fest, Dave Schwartz came out with the overall and Pro class victories.

Brian Granger finished second overall and walked away with the Club class win.

ZG 3 & 12 at Imola

By Jacob Shum, Carolinas Region PCA

Introduction

Zone Group 3 & 12 held their 5th race at Imola and it was an incident-filled event!

Qualifying

Qualifying started with a bang as the top three drivers qualified within 0.2 seconds of each other with Jacob Shum leading Rafael Amorim and Robert Rattray.

Heat Race

From the green flag, the 30-minute heat race found the top-3 fighting closely with each other until the round of pitstops where Jacob had a slow stop. Robert and Rafael fought tooth and nail to the end until they came up behind a backmarker.

At Rivazza, Robert successfully cleared the backmarker. Rafael tried to Read More >

ZG 6, 7, 8, 9, 11 & 14 Silverstone Highlights

By Chip Witt, Redwood Region PCA

The Wild West Zone Group (WWZ) held their 4th race of Series 1 at Silverstone this past week.

After a short one-week holiday hiatus, the Wild West Zones brought their battle to the historic Silverstone Grand Prix circuit for the fourth race in the five-race “fun series” on Friday night, December 4th.

Continuing the trend of adding unique, surprise challenges to the series, all classes were combined for a 22 car grid that mixed Porsche 911 RSR (Pro and Club) and Ruf RT 12 Track (Sport and Challenge) for a multi-class bonanza.

Traffic management and patience were keys Read More >

Zone 1 Road America Race

By Anker Berg-Sonne, Northeast Region PCA

The ZG1 Championship Begins

The first championship point race for the Zone 1 Wildcats was run Friday, December 5th, at Road America.

Road America is a fun, fast course with a couple of very tricky corners. Corner 3 requires a lot of braking and patience to hit the apex and track out. Failure puts you in the grass or a plodding exit speed leading on to the Moraine Sweep.

Corner 5 has a downhill approach and punishes late braking by putting you in the runout, as does corner six, where you end up in the grass and inevitably Read More >
